What is “espresso”?

I have received many compliments on my blog and I thought it was time to introduce its creators to whom I am profoundly grateful!! The fabulous design for Babes on Bay Street was created by Espresso, an integrated marketing agency that blends digital, social, experiential, and classic marketing tactics with an uber-rigorous commitment to metrics and measurement. Simply put? Espresso is in the business of brand infiltration™. They create experiences, not ads, for businesses of all size and scope. Espresso says it best in their own words: check out more about their company at  www.brandinfiltration.com Happy Thanksgiving!!!

Management Lessons

This employee review system sounds good to me!! It gives equal weight to four areas, rather than simply focusing on financial goals. 1. On-the-job performance, the typical quantitative goals 2. Peer group relationships 3. Management/leadership, or how well you develop the people around you 4. Innovation/best practices It is attributed to Bill Campbell, Silicon Valley's "Secret Coach", in an article in Fortune Magazine. (See the July 21, 2008 edition)
